toddhol on "[Plugin: WP Permastructure] WP 4.0 broke my custom permalinks"

When I updated to WordPress v4.0 it removed all of my custom post type permalinks and replaced them with "/". In other words, clicking on a custom permalink takes you to the homepage.

I have 2 custom post types: "Business" and "Coupon". The permalink settings for Business are "/%business_cat%/%postname%/" with has_archive: false / with_front: true

For Coupon, settings are "/coupon/%postname%/" with has_archive: false / with_front: false.

The box is unchecked for "Use custom permalink of custom taxonomy archive"

here is post-types.php

<?php
